The Bridge - Ch2-5
Meredith’s Pen OMG that scene was soo cute! See I love little things like that in books. Meredith is frantic over her “missing” pen. Then Pete shows up and sits next to her all dashing as if he didn’t just disappear for the last couple of hours. He hands over her pen as if it was magic. He later makes a bargain with her that he’ll tell her how he had her pen if she allows him to carry her suitcase for her. Turns out the pen was just on her notebook, and all he did was grabbed it and handed over to her. She was in such a disbelief after accusing him of stealing her pen. I love them together. I love it when Pete gets to tease Meredith. I feel this is one of those situations where the characters can just look back in time and laugh about.
Chris Pratt The thing I hate most about Pete is that he looks like Chris Pratt *insert puking emoji here*. I basically didn’t even try to imagine him as Chris Pratt at all. Pete deserves better hahaha jk. Plus, doesn’t Chris Pratt’s church/pastor is against LGBTQ? Total turn offffffffff, but correct me if I’m wrong.
Dan The first time meeting Dan in the series, I thought “okay this guy seems all right.” This is me reading Dan’s introduction for the second time: DAN THE MAN! IT’S DAN THE MAN! He really is the man.
Rooftops Under Snow Meredith is staring out her window for the first time. Then Pete walks in and suddenly decides to join her. He mentions how by December she’ll have her own Rooftops Under Snow. This scene didn’t grab my attention as much as other scenes between Meredith and Pete in the book, but I do love that they get to share this little moment together. I just feels it will always be their moment. I will have to say after reading the series, this scene just gets more precious. I also love the way Pete runs out of her room like a kid after realizing he just won a bet against Dan that the first thing Meredith will do is go supply shopping.
Addison Girls As I was reading the scene where Meredith meets all of the Addison girls for the first time, I was just thinking “please don’t be fake friends who are only listening to Meredith’s problem because you are into gossips.” So glaaaaaad they weren’t!
Lindsay I personally don’t take selfies with duck lips. Actually I don’t take selfies at all, but that doesn’t mean there is anything wrong with that. I wish the author didn’t give so much hate towards Lindsay just because she does that, or maybe that is just how the author wants Meredith to react to it. If it is, Meredith stop being so judgy! Plus, another cliche I hate in RomComs is that the girlfriend or boyfriend of the person the main character’s love interest have to be terrible. As if they want you to dislike that person. I hate it because the main character’s issue isn’t “the other woman/man.” It is the person you have a relationship with, and in Meredith’s situation it is Drew. If you did have a relationship with the girlfriend then I guess that is fine, but so far it seems Meredith and Lindsay were just only good roommates in their first year of college. Plus, it wasn’t as if Drew cheated on Meredith. But then, if you do love someone, and they are not with you, you can’t help but hate everyone that person is in love with sometimes. Gosh, love is difficult.
Drew I know I said Pete looks douchey on the plane, but Drew sounds douchey. When Meredith was thinking about, he just seems so selfish about their relationship. But would that be how you guys would react if you were in his situation?
I am glad I was able to get a few chapters down this time instead of one. What are some of your favorite moments of Meredith and Pete? How did you imagine Pete or any of the other character’s appearance? Was Drew selfish to me as it was to you guys? And, isss Chris Pratt’s church againt LGBTQ’s?
